what is this "postponed publickey for user" in the logs?

"su -" and "su" - what is the real difference?

n the "real world") between running `su` (getting a non-login shell) and `su -` (getting a login shell). Is there a security related problem with any of the invokings above? AFAIK the real and effective uids are always set to 0 after both commands. Thanks! Daniel -- LeVA -- To UNSUBS

editing "new" known_hosts files

Hi! I have reinstalled a server of mine, and now I need to remove it's old pubkey from my $HOME/.ssh/known_hosts, but it is in the "new" format, so no hostnames which may indicate which pubkey belongs to which host. How can I "decrypt" the known_hosts file? Thanks!

Re: Request for comments: iptables script for use on laptops.

n one can spoof anything else, so creating any rule with an ip address matching is useless. No? If I set up my firewall to accept only my local network (eg. -s 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0) connecting to a port (eg. smtp), then anyone can spoof that too. So what's the point of creating rules? :) Daniel -- LeVA
